The results have come in, and apparently i am now King of Marind Bell. This is a great step towards further action in MB. We have already done a lot of work with the alliances and going from the small idea of a MB government i discussed with Rheagar, to approval by the MB people and now the council is a great move. I thank all that did, and didnt, vote for me for MB Kingship. I look forward to comments from anyone who did or didnt vote for me. Specifically those who didnt, because that means they feel that someone else was in some regards better. I would like to know what aspects this is so that i may try and better myself. In this vein i shall be discussing with Fang and Magistra what their ideas and plans were for MB, so that we may jointly work together. I hope that they will both aid me in developing some of their plans for MB, so that the whole of MB are united. Thank you Magistra and Fang. EDIT: Magistra does not want to talk, I would very much like to hear her point of view, but if she is to do this then i will be unable to

Welcome back

Caching is now on properly which should mean that its doing much better than what it was. Over the next couple days the cache should fill and therefore reach a more "stable" point. Currently 60% of all database requests are cached and therefore served very fast. Max connections has also been boosted so anyone getting "cannot connect to DB" errors should not get them. Report all findings here/pm/email/blarge

query caching was disabled due to a crappy GUI disabling it, iv now enabled it properly so the SQL shall be a lot faster now.

A variety of caching hasnt been turned on yet, until thats done its going to be bad when big things happen, like shared items returning,

Thats an issue with it communicating with flash. Whats your browser/OS?

It can be done, the current measures are used to reduce people doing it. If you are doing it, we dont recommend or support doing it, and may ban/jail accounts doing it.

As others said no. There is a no flash interface thats limited and mostly broken at magicduel.com/mobile/ but that hasnt been worked on in a while.

That sounds like your end speed rather than MD, there isnt much that could make a site take a minute to load. Different bug, mur installed GEOIP, i will look at it.

That normally occurs when your flash breaks. Because it cannot find flash objects to call functions on. Are you using adblocker or similar?

Iv ran a load of accounts at once. If people want to start abusing the fact then i can change the way that the system works and it will force one account to be able to be played. It will be painful when switching alts, and it wont be fun.

Its not likely a bug, because the heads has been working for a while. Can you give more details?

And thats why i told you NOT to modify your hosts file to circumnavigate cloudflare. Serves you right. I do remember you smugly telling people that you had done this before

I would point out that since the new scene code has been added it does another check to see what additional images which will add time delay. Meaning that much of this "change" could easily have just been the additional details to load.

i also have 23 keys if people want any lol

If the vote indicates that people want to be monarch i feel you should be it, Assuming you are happy to. It shouldnt matter what issues you have with an alliance leader or whatever and if the people want you to be monarch, you should be it.

I wonder where you found my age, since Mur is the only person who knows who i am ect :) Or you are just saying rubbish... Others can decide

Would you argue that all that wish to try get a few months to try? That seems impractical and chaotic to me. My argument is that, if you want to help MB, you can without any special powers, as i have done with KoB, it is now an alliance with members doing interesting things. If you arent already doing it, who says you will when given fancy powers? This is the same logic as RPC status, you get it once you are already an RPC.

Yeah, so your ping still shows you are being routed to the old server Valldore meaning your DNS is cached "somewhere" if you have flushed your DNS, cleared cache and other things, then there isnt much to do unless you change your DNS server. It should flood through the new details at some point... Sorry we cant do anything to help.

try ping magicduel.com and tell me the results run -> cmd -> ping magicduel.com specifically i want the IP address its returning.

At this point iv spent a load of time setting the server up so that its properly deployed for our config. There is a few changes that need to be done that i shall be performing over the coming days but it should all be working fine. There may be a number of restarts of processes which may log you out, i will minimise these but apologise for necessary ones. If anyone see's bugs which were not present on the previous server please post them up as soon as you notice them, screenshots and such. Thanks.

By now the only problem people should be having is that their helpful OS has cached the DNS. the above ipconfig command should fix this issue on windows. for linux, google it :)

Be well Lord Tipu

I have already posted this but it wont resolve all problems as some ISP's may cache it longer than we tell them to.

thats because i restarted something.
